For those of you who aren’t aware, The Spectrum Retreat is a project from Dan Smith, who won the BAFTA Young Game Designer award back in 2016. After winning, Ripstone Games ended up approaching and partnering with him order to fully develop The Spectrum Retreat.

When it comes to puzzles, the game features no reaction or physics based ones to make things more relaxing.
